Comfort Food

I am not certain what we are having for supper tonight, probably leftover chili.

@LadyDuck I was glad that we had a bit of leftovers last night. Ron went to see a doctor yesterday and they told him that his Ontario Health Card had expired. We always get notices for renewals for those as well as our driver's licenses every 5 years. I asked him to check his driver's license and it also expired at his birthday in February. I had to drive him 25 minutes to the office where they take your photo and renew your documents. He has temporary ones until the permanent cards arrive in the mail, although Canada Post is on strike currently.

@Juliaacv I baked the salmon in the oven and served with potatoes.

Oh that sounds so yummy. I have to take out some squash from the deep freezer to thaw, we can have that tonight also.

@sallypup Try and say Sunday Souffle Supper really fast 3 times........

@Juliaacv The souffle somehow sounds like a nice Sunday supper.

@Juliaacv A dryer will be one they’ll be very thankful for. That’s a very thoughtful gift. The Lions were very impressive today, and your son saw a really good game. I’m sure he’ll be thrilled to be home finally.

Happy Birthday to Diana! My husband was glued to the television all day long as the Lions were playing, and our son is in Pittsburg at a football game there. He should be on his way home by now I imagine. I was bored today and did some 'window shopping' online. I have no ideas for a gift for Jonathon & Klaudia, they are impossible to buy for. We offered to buy them a new washer and dryer last year for Christmas, they do alot of laundry with the twins, but he told me that he wanted to get another year or two out of the set that was in the house when they bought it. Last week they acquired a new to them washing machine from the freecycle site, and I was looking for a new dryer for them. I went out and shopped in person, and after I view the one that they have, and see the exact colour, then I will go and buy the one that I looked at this afternoon. They have a dark grey one, but I think that flat black will go with it since that colour of grey puts the dryer well over $1,000 and I am not willing to pay that for a Christmas gift.

@AmbiePam I know that they need a new dryer, and it just makes sense to buy them something practical for Christmas since they can, and do buy themselves non-essentials on their own. He should be home from the game around 8:30 tonight, I'm sure that Harper will be fast asleep, but Willow is such a Daddy's girl, that she may be lying in her bed waiting to hear his voice.

Having soup makes me think that it is a cool day there also. I just put the turkey pieces into the oven. Soon it will start to smell delicious in here.

I like cinnamon as a spice too.

@Juliaacv ......And it has several health benefits too.

Next week already, that is creeping up quickly.

@Juliaacv the holidays are sneaking up on us

@Juliaacv Black Friday sales are going on here and it seems as if they've started earlier this year. I might be mistaken but it usually was the day after Thanksgiving and not a week or so ahead. I actually took advantage and got a new stove and saved quite a few hundred dollars.

Soups and chili count as comfort food for me too, we had chili on Saturday night. The leftover turkey meat will make for nice wraps with a little lettuce and Swiss cheese for lunches this week.

We enjoy chicken alfredo quite often here too. It is my husband's favorite. Tonight was delicious. The leftover turkey will make for delicious wraps with Swiss cheese.

@Juliaacv it's a favorite here too.

You remind me that I haven't had a hot dog in quite a while. We sometimes have them on a Saturday for lunch.

Fruit cocktail.

Oh I've had that, it is delicious.

@Juliaacv Yes, it is delicious. We ate the leftover an hour ago for dinner

Poultry is so delicious and healthy.
